When I am dead, my dearest by Christina Rossetti
Beautiful 💜
Beautiful. Happy #StGeorgesDay, #England! 🏴🏴🏴
Beautiful. Happy #StGeorgesDay, #England! 🏴🏴🏴
‘This precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall, Or as a moat defensive to a house, Against the envy of less happier lands, This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.’ #StGeorgesDay #ShakespearesBirthday
Those We Love (author unknown)
The True Dragon by Brian Patten — a poem for #StGeorgesDay 🏴

I don’t actually believe this, but all the same, my life is now complete ❤️
A reminder to anyone who loves poetry, as I do, that poetry is at its best when read aloud, each word, each syllable a stepping stone to meaning and truth. j
